«Magnard: Symphony Nos. 1 & 2» is the album by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra conducted by Jean-Yves Ossonce, released in 1998 by Hyperion on CD.

These are substantial, cyclic works with attractive orchestration and a serious, somewhat melancholic tone. It includes movements such as «Danses: Vif» and «Chant varié: Très nuancé».
A disc with DDD recording and a total duration of 67:17; the sessions for Symphony No. 1 were recorded in September and December 1997.
